It All Starts Here…

You work a full time job and have been hustling on the side building your empire but can’t seem to launch.

You’re looking to work and earn an extra income but just don’t know how or where to begin.

You want to be more healthy, happy and productive but can’t ever seem to get organized.

You wish sometimes to be surrounded by people who understand your frustration as well as your vision.

Meet the Author & Founder

The life of a tech mom blogger is the life for me. Back in 2001 I was a new wife and mom struggling and juggling everyday to manage my demanding career at work along with the daily tasks of managing life at home. After my second child was born I decided that working from home was the best decision for myself and my growing family. I started my first mom blog called The Cocktail Cafe in 2006. The success of writing to an audience of over 500k views per month gave me comfort when my marriage was ending in 2012. Depressed, stressed, and headed for divorced I used the time away heal my heart, mind, and body.

After careful consideration and a much needed break from social media, I’ve have decided to return with a new outlook on the life of a busy mom in a crazy techie dot com world. Things have changed so much now in today’s world. Technology has entered into every aspect of our lives. Whether we care to admit it, we rely on apps and programs to do everything from order a pizza to talking to grandma across the globe.

This platform is my contribution to the work-life balance so many parents in transition experience. It is my sincere hope that you will get something out of being here to make your life better. I am always looking to partner and “pow wow” with you in furthering my understanding and appreciation for how different our methods are as well as our similarities in wanting nothing but the best for our families and ourselves.

More than just a social networking site, ParentalPowWow.com was created to help parents balance their personal and professional lives.

Making the difficult decision to leave my corporate cubicle as a former marketing exec to raise my family and pursue my passion was the scariest and greatest decision I’ve ever made. I hope my range of personal and professional experiences will add depth to the mom conversation. Follow me on a journey to sharing this West Indian mom’s perspective on all things related to parenting, culture, career, business, food, and fun.
